Borja Coasts of Arms

It is one of the most important pieces of the Palace. This large rectangular room intersects with the front corridors of the Arms courtyard, which also has looking out onto the river. The fourth Duke of Gandia increased the size of the three smaller rooms and put up the wooden coffered ceiling.

The name of this room comes from the numerous crowns, which decorate the coffered ceiling.
A skirting board, made of Valencian tiles, goes around the room. The technique is called “Arris” or “channelled”, originally from Triana potters.
The Crown Assembly Hall was used as an entertaining room and to administer the justice.

In this room, we can find one of the building's oldest windows overlooking the Arms Courtyard. It is a Moorish gothic window where the columns support a lobed arch framed by a moulding.

Nowadays, we can find in this room some canvases dating from the beginning of the 20th century, which depict scenes from the life of the fourth Duke of Gandia, Saint Francis of Borja.
